To All Artist out there!!

[Memo Pad]

I started comics since I was 8.
No special schoolin' for me, I just picked up info that caught my interest. Then practiced the shit out of it!

As far as being good, shi'it, I ain't at my peek yet.
I can't consider myself bein' "good". I still have a long road ahead of me, through the path to ROCKING.

Now if you mean getting to the point of being "comfortable"
with drawing, I would say it took me 'bout 3 hours.

Invest about 3 hours every day you decide to draw stuff.
Fill those scrap pages full 'o junk. It helps to come up with a character(s) you like; use drawing as a cure for boredom.

Never feel defeated, just keep in mind that if other "human beings" can make bad-ass anime, then you're really not too different from them.
Shoot for extremely difficult goals, out-do the teacher.
If you put a lot of effort for the difficult tasks, you'll always be able to handle the normal ones.

(I'm ranting on too much, but before I shut myself up, here's a helpful hint.)

When you practice, don't erase, re-draw your work.
You'll be able to see your unwanted habits, compare, and notice your slight improvements. (COMPLETELY fill that scrap page with junk!)

When you draw for real, shi'it, you can erase as much as you fuckin' want.

Take a look at the tutorials in my website. It's not fully complete yet, but the stuff that I got there can get you several drawing angles.

If you got any questions, don't be afraid to contact me.

Good luck and ROCK ON!!
